| Microsoft likes to do the "opt out for the next 30 days", including uploading all my spreadsheets to Copilot to be training data. |

| "Can we do X, Y, Z?" Yes? Or maybe later? It's so annoying. No means no, not "pester me later"! |

| That would be enough to get me to spend those 30 days migrating all my spreadsheets to a new format. |
